Title
Low-rank approximations for computing observation impact in 4D-Var data assimilation.
Abstract
We present an efficient computational framework to quantify the impact of individual observations in four dimensional variational data assimilation. The proposed methodology uses first and second order adjoint sensitivity analysis, together with matrix-free algorithms to obtain low-rank approximations of observation impact matrix. This novel technique is illustrated in what follows on important applications such as data pruning and the identification of faulty sensors for a two dimensional shallow water test system.
